Endgame

Doomsday scenarios are often predictive about an ending in life, revealing just what would occur if the world pushed itself to the brink of extinction. And the term "endgame" typically parallels such thinking, often evoking concepts of finality or termination. But for Rise Against, this particular endgame might just be their beginning. As the title of the band's sixth full-length studio album--and the moniker of the album's title track--Endgame is indicative of both a world that has run its course, and perhaps ushering in an entirely new start.
